x86, xsave: Use alloc_bootmem_align() instead of alloc_bootmem()



Alignment of alloc_bootmem() depends on the value of
L1_CACHE_SHIFT. What we need here, however, is 64 byte alignment.  Use
alloc_bootmem_align() and explicitly specify the alignment instead.

This fixes a kernel boot crash reported by Jody when the cpu in .config
is set to MPENTIUMII but the kernel is booted on a xsave-capable CPU.
